This is amazing episode!!

I just finished reading the manga chapters leading to this. This covers the end of Volume 2.

As someone posted. The chapter was actually short and the Anime did streched it out(I guess they want to start Chapter 3 on a new episode).

Here's some small changes.

Sayaka is much more snobby in the manga. Already confirmed it on the last episode, but she's really showing her jealous side here



Another new content they added is how Yuu had to ask her sister on who was the president 7 years ago and learned it was Touko's sister. In the manga(above), all she had to do is ask the Teacher and he straight up told her. I guess this his just a way to extend the scenes.

Also when Yuu asked Touko to come home together, the Anime added one frame of Sayaka's expression. I guess they want to emphasize her jealousy.



The under the bridge scene is pretty much the exact same thing. But Touko's expression is much more dead inside compared to the Anime.



She also added one dialogue "Don't grow to hate me" when both of them were walking towards the middle.

Another change I notice is with Yuu's dialogue. When she stopped at the puddle. In the Anime she said "If I can't be with her, who else could I learn to love?" compared to the Manga "If I can't Fall in Love with Senpai, then I don't want to fall in Love with anyone"



I understand Japanese so the Anime translation is correct(Asenshi), but I wonder about the Manga translation. I have a feeling it is accurate. They just wanted to change things on the Anime, since they don't want Yuu falling in love with Touko just yet.

Finally, the backstory of Touko's sister is saved at the end of chapter. Anime puts it in the middle.

Other than those changes. I like the Anime! They really added a lot and flow things much better!

*BONUS!

At the end manga panel, they already announced the Anime being recorded? Since the chapters came before the Volume. I doubled check the JPN Raw Vol 2. And the panel is there. So it seems they have began recording since 2016 or at least audition.



Kotobuki Minako was already decided to voiced Touko :D

but did you know that Hisako Kanemoto was originally going to voice Yuu!? :O
The author was even impress with both performances of Kanemoto and Kotobuki. I guess since Kanemoto was going to be on hiatus to study abroad this year, so they had to find someone for this year.

https://www.crunchyroll.com/anime-news/2018/05/26/voice-actress-hisako-kanemoto-to-go-on-hiatus-for-studying-abroad

And I'm glad they did get a relative new Seiyuu Yuuki Takada. I really love her voice! Plus her nickname might as well be "Yuu"!

Can't wait for the next episode! Start of Volume 3 Chapter 11 :)

I hope they keep a distance from complexity, love triangles, NTR.. etc.

was never able to confess to her for... reasons.
There is always that fear of rejection and she rejected many confessions already, including girls. It's a pretty good and realistic reason.


I guess it's a valid point... although I think it's better to confess and being rejected than not confessing at all but that's just me. And not to mention that she's the one who knows Touko the best I mean, she probably even knows the "real" Touko too. And for that reason, she probably has less to fear. But that's just my opinion.

I'm not watching a manga. I don't consider it a proper story without an ending, so if they need to invent one to close the story that's totally fine by me. Otherwise, all I'm watching is an advertisement for a manga and that's not satisfying.

Doubt they will make an ending just for the anime. Depends how popular the series is . It could become the first yuri to get a 2nd season in a long time

That's a relief, thank you!
That's what I'm expecting from this type of romance.

As I said above:

SharafDan said:
Love Triangle is one of top worst concepts invented in anime history!
I wonder why most love stories like to involve love triangles!
Why shouldn't they think of new drama approaches instead of repeating same ideas? Is it just to fill up the content?

With that being said, I'm pretty interested to see how [Yagate kimi ni naru] will handle Sayaka-Nanami-Koito relationship. I will pray for a sweet solution.

I was happy with the lighthearted drama since first episode, but now I'm a little bit nervous because it's approaching a dangerous course, and it's dangerous because it will most likely hurt someone!

I'm going to wait, I will just wait and see.. I trust you [Bloom Into You], please don't betray me!


Also, I feel it's now obvious when this is going!
Touko seems to love Yuu if Yuu doesn't love her back.. it seems like this is the way Touko's heart is doki doki!
On the other hand, Yuu wants a moment of doki doki for herself and she's starting to fall in love with her senpai, so basically when Yuu confesses her love to senpai, senpai will reject her and there starts the climax drama which will end with a doki doki love confession moment for both of them at the same time which achieve the main point of the story!

It should be precisely because she knows the real Touko that she fears rejection. Sayaka has probably grown to know what Touko does and does not want, and being loved is certainly not what she desires.

In addition to the usual small differences, there were a lot of additional scenes this time compared to the manga... Leading to a whole different way of discovering the identity of the president 7 years ago. Good in some ways, not as good in others, but I guess it did work in the end.

I guess I agree with Koyomi.

Yeah, I though about that too a while after I wrote my response. Kind of complex but I think a talk can be better than staying quiet like Sayaka for all the time she has known Touko.

Well... assuming it's "love" what she feels and not just a very close bond between friends.

A little bit of drama has been put on the table, but that only makes this more interesting.

Since the beginning, I've always loved the atmosphere that this anime has given me every time I sit down to watch it. It feels laid back and is something I've enjoyed watching whenever I want to relax.

I think this is the first shoujo-ai or the first in a very long time that I have watched, that contains little to no fanservice at all, and I enjoy it. If you wanted something beyond that then there is always hentai to go to, but I will enjoy my cup of warm tea with a wholesome and pure shoujo-ai anime like this.

Now, this is what I call a great episode!
So, we got a huge insight on what drives Nanami to be the perfect, reliable, "ideal" person she is. It shocked me a lot to have the truth revealed. Even though I had my suspicions something similar must had happened, I just had no idea it was her sister.
Yuu keeps chasing the opportunity to finally feel something for someone, and is willing to do anything for it, including lying and manipulating Nanami. Not sure how to feel about what she did, and how she's using Nanami-senpai for her own purpose. This said, they are both using each other, so it should be only "fair" Yuu does it too.
At last, Saeki is clearly not in "Yuu's team", and her jealousy seem to have grown considerably from last episode. I wonder how it will end, and what will she do to keep Nanami-senpai to herself.

Side note: The visuals and sound on this episode seemed even better than usual. The scene of them walking to each other might be one of my fav things in anime till date.

I'm a little aggravated by how much drama is being added bc I was told this wouldn't have as much as Citrus but I guess that was a lie. I also am really confused about Nanami wanting Yuu to never fall in love with her so this relationship might not happen b4 the end of the season. I also wonder where Saeki will try to jump in and if anyone else will fall for Yuu

Luckily, this is the only conflict so far in the manga so it doesn't have as much drama as Citrus. Its drama isn't also forced like Citrus where there are multiple characters whose entire purpose is to create drama. This conflict is a natural result of the two characters personalities in the situation they're in and it did give you six episodes to care about the characters and relationships before adding drama.

YagaKimi is the most popular shoujo-ai/yuri in Japan right now and it's not like Troyca has anything better to do. If we get a non-ending then there's probably going to be a sequel in 2020, if we get to the best place to end this, chapter 32 then we'll probably get a sequel in 2021.

I dunno if i'm the only one, but that train has been spooking me a lot. They show that crossing a lot and the presentation makes it feel foreboding. I do hope that it was merely for the scene in this episode... Maybe i've just seen too many anime, but that train feels like it has "tragedy" written on it.

Visuals are brilliantly done in this show. I'm seriously going to have to give the art a 9 in my final rating.

But the pacing is honestly quite slow, but I understand that. The author publishes in a monthly shoujo so chapters come out twelve times a year. So the studio would've liked to have more material to work with.

I also expected a higher rating for the show, at least a 7.9. Well, I guess it can be kind of boring for non manga readers, the pace is quite slow as I mentioned. But that's what I like about it. It's really realistic and the amount of time that passes in the anime compared to real time is really realistic. Thoroughly enjoyable show honestly.

Btw, loved this week's episode. Last scene was absolutely stunning, Nanami is confusing as ever but things will clear up pretty soon.

Why does every anime have to feature death or loss of a loved one to try to manipulate or steer the viewer's feelings in some direction? Is there actually a show with all family members alive? Perhaps it's not necessarily bad but in this case the show has already masterfully transmitted profound feelings with its unique main character and contemplative and credible pacing.

Anyway, still loved this episode just like all the other ones. Time to rewatch this another ten times like the last episode :3


Because Japan is a very collectivist country and the motive "become an heir and replace the deceased more successful relative", is quite common in Japanese culture.

Phenomenal episode! Every episode keeps on getting better and better!

I had a feeling that Saeki wasn't as sweet as everyone thought she is. It was nice knowing more of Touko's character and why she always acts the way she is. It's sad to hear the tragedy of her sister! :'c
The relationship between Yuu and Touko is getting much deeper and the second half really got me! The ending was a nice touch as well with them holding hands! <3

I can't wait to see more of their relationship bloom! I'm excited to watch more! <3

i mean, it has managed to be haertwarming, sad, terrifying and funny. sometimes all of them at the same time, Touko's unhealthy view on love and herself is the biggest contributor, though Yuu's confusion about love also helps

True, but I'm just glad the author managed to do that in a way that doesn't frustrate the viewer!
Sad moments are welcomed in a heartwarming drama, but depression is not, right?
Although, I personally don't think there's much sadness in Yagate Kimi Ni Naru, rather there's some needed character and love development for both Touko and Yuu.

What the fuck was that ending scene? I mean the river scene about her dead sister was touching, but I'm not sure how I feel about that ending scene, revealing Touko's thoughts. Is she pretending the whole love thing just to shackle Yuu to her? Does she have actual feelings for her or is it all a lie? These two girls have serious issues :S
I really hope things will turn out for the better, because from here onwards it's all either ruined for me or it becomes something great.
By the way, I don't like how Saeki acts. She gives me some jealous yandere vibes :/ I mean part of it is understandable of course, but I hope she won't do anything crazy :'D

I think if there's one thing to take away from this episode its that Nanami has a big problem with emotional repression. So the thought of a real relationship is terrifying to her because she doesnt think she can handle that kind of emotional intimacy. I think by saying love is like shackles she was expressing this fear, as she enjoys the feeling so much she has to cope with the pain it causes her.

Loving this adaptation. They are doing the manga justice to perfection! Sound and visuals are absolutely stunning and it is beautifully voiced. Now we are getting into the heavy drama and we get a small look at Nanami’s thoughts. Yuu closes out on the note of wanting to be able to love Nanami and Nanami closes out on the note of not wanting Yuu to love her back.... senpai sure is unfair Yuu! Hang in there girl.

I dont remember Sayaka being this much of a bitch in the manga. Sure she has jealousy issues but I dont remember her taking it out on Yuu that bad. Maybe i just forgot though idk

I got really confused at first about what Touko's real goal is, but I managed to quite grasp of what happened because of the above comments. So, if I understand it correctly, Touko is lonely and fell in love with Yuu knowing that Yuu will not feel any love for her? And she just want someone to be with her? Yuu on the other hand, agreed to stay by her side, because she would like to learn how to love. So what will happen if Yuu will really fall on love with her?


What I like about this episode is when they take each steps closer and love the part when they held hands while walking. Nice music and visuals and Sayaka is obviously jealous.

The quality of this anime is stunning. Although visuals were as beautiful as ever, I must say the sound design in this episode was beyond amazing. That scene at the river was so masterfully crafted with some of the best cinematography, sound design, and timing I have ever seen in anime. What really hit me and made me realise this was when Touko dropped the bomb and told Yuu that she'd rather die than hear those words and then the train just went past with its deafening sound. I'm surprised at how high quality this anime is.

Aside from the technical aspects, I'm liking the story. I didn't expect a lot of it. I didn't expect the sister part until I heard the name Nanami Mio. It was slightly disturbing for me personally to hear that Mio and Touko are like twins (I assume in appearance, and to most people in personality too) and now Touko is trying to be exactly like Mio, trying to be her replacement. It feels unnerving for some reason. She's taking the place of a dead person, trying her best to BE that dead person, and in the process it's like she "kills" her true self.

And I also did not expect her reaction to Yuu's words. I assumed it was her going to be surprised or falling in love with Yuu more from those words, as you'd expect from a romantic drama. But she flat out refused, but honestly speaking those were some hard words, saying she'd rather die than hear those words. And with such a sweet smile and expression on her face too.

What follows is probably one of the best scenes I have ever seen in anime: the part where they step on the stones and slowly get closer to each other, and Yuu going along with everything Touko is saying.

And then the final scene as well as the after-credits scene. I don't know at all how I should feel about their motivations, but it certainly is something different from what I could ever have expected or imagined out of this story. I don't know why but I keep feeling tension and slight discomfort (or maybe anxiety?) from how everything is and how everything is going to turn out. Now they basically have opposing goals: one who wants to fall in love with the other, and the other who doesn't want the one to fall in love. It feels like both of their reasons are really selfish and they're doing it to each other, which ironically puts each side (at least for the time being) where they want to be.

Amazing, beautiful, can't wait to see more.

P.S. Sayaka is pretty scary.

Almost perfect execution.
Seriously love all the little details in how they bring the manga to life, though that dramatic moment the train passes may have been going a bit too far, still delivered some IMPACT.
The portrayal of their current status is soo cute, it has many layers too, which makes it extremely believe and humane.

Never yuri got this much budget and said budget put in all the right spots.
I dare to say if this wasn't a yuri show, the score would have been even higher, pity.

Don't see why the anime would need an ending. When there isn't even an ending in the manga yet


I'm not watching a manga. I don't consider it a proper story without an ending, so if they need to invent one to close the story that's totally fine by me. Otherwise, all I'm watching is an advertisement for a manga and that's not satisfying.
I can't really understand why you would actually want that. In my own personal experience, anime-original endings that diverge from the manga for the sake of having a "complete" story are almost always trash. Look at shows like Soul Eater, Blue Exorcist (although that one was pretty shit to begin with IMO), Fullmetal Alchemist, Hellsing, Claymore... All of them are popular anime based off a manga that they diverged from and wrote in an original ending, and all of these endings were very controversial or even widely hated. (Claymore especially has one of the worst endings I've ever seen in an anime, it drags the rest of the show down so hard.)

I dont know if theres a diference btw loving someone and liking someone , feeling are hard to explains , its even worse in my case since , just like the MC , i have trouble to fall in love , it never hapened but i also want it to hapens

But i dont want a girl that like me cause i dont like her , since i dont understand thoses feeling , i cant control them , they will burst out and make the releationship a waist of time

Also , its like playing ball , A love B untill B love A , then Once B dont love A , A will love B again
A didnt want a changing feelings , but its already hapening
Loli world is just a cute world full of cute meat
